In addition, no all historians are equipped with abundant knowledge, which includes not only history knowledge but also artistic, linguistic and archaeological knowledge as well, and no all of them are equipped with rich experience about reorganize the history facts. As known to all, to research and explore history needs deep understanding concerning peoples artworks, literatures, customs, mores, beliefs, languages in past time, and sometimes needs necessary archaeological knowledge as well to study the artifacts they unearthed, which can give some information to study and prove the authenticity of some history events. Experience is of the tantamount importance.When meeting with a new-discovering history materials and artifacts, seasoned and sophisticated historians can at once judge whether they are authentic or man-made falsehoods, and evaluate their internal value for studying history at first glance.Ironically, many historians lacking of foregoing knowledge and experience are also engaging in studying history, which are responsible for the fact that their work is regarded as only subjective and even storytelling one.
Moreover, historians are inevitably affected by the exterior conditions, their perspectives and opinions have to be subjected to the time and the authority. For one thing, historians only existed in a relatively short span in long historical river, limited by the time and the degree of civilization of their countries, unavoidably, some of their perspectives and ideas turned out to be fallacious and fatuous if inspected by todays criterion. For another, historians also were impacted by the political situations. When making historical records, seldom had historians the courage to disobey the will and power of the potentate, therefore some stories in historical records often involved in such contents as exalting the efficiency of the policies the politicians made, and portraying the savvy and sagacity of the authorities, while those objective fact, if violating the authorities interest, can rarely be seen, Based on the above two aspects,we can safely draw a conclusion that historians are storytellers to some extent.
